Making Preparations at steubenvills-Psr-
sonsl Notes-Sad Death.
As Steubenville can't have q base ball
club of her own the interest of the lovers
of the game who reside here must per
force be conferred in the club Of some other
city, and Just nov Wheeling is receiving
their attention. This is partly due to the
fact that some ofSteubenSille's old players
are with the Wheeling club, and partly
because Wheeling is a neighboring city.
The way the boys whacked it to the brag
Zanesyilles on the Fourth Of July and last
Thursday was very gratifying to their
S~teubenville admirers. Dunn's friends
were well pleased with his brilliant work
in the box Thursday, when he kept the
Zanesyilles down to six hits and won the
game. He can play ball when he Is at
himself, and his friends here hope that In
the future he will always be in the best
condition. Go for 'em, Dunn, and You
will be ably assisted by Nicholson and
Smurthwaite.
The committees having in charge the
proposed Street Fair are attending to all
the preliminaries necessary looking toward
q successful termination of the matter, and
if something unlocked for does not occur,
a crowd equal TO that drawn by the big
reunion will be here on October 1914
During the past weekthe weather proph-
cts were kept busy announcing that this
is the hottest day we will have this season"
The day following would he still hotter
aud the announcement would have to be
renewed.
Will Layton on Thursday evening got
on the rampage, knocked his s~ister-in-law
down, assaulted several citizens, and when
the police undertook to arrest him made
things 50 lively that it took three officers
to take him to the lookup, and attracted a
crowd eli several hundred. As a reward for
his ~pleasantries William has been given the
opportunity by the Mayor to make brushes
in the Cleveland woIkhouSe for thirty days,
Just the same as any ordinary tough would
do. Ii will also be necessary for hun to
whack up SOL. 30 fine and costs or his term
of Punishment will be extended until that
amount is worked out. 1t is 10 be hoped
that he won't pay, : his absence will be
of far more benefit to the city than the
money.
